Hi (27F) Please don’t poly bash if you don’t understand it- we’re all 4 years happily in love.

Recently I tore my ACL, had surgery, and also lost my job giving me a ton of time to work on social media content creation and it’s been highly successful with sponsorships and free products for reviews (yipee)!

Seeing my recent and consistent dedication to my own brand/social media día page, my partner (35M) brought again to my attention promoting our relationship on a dedicated poly page for our relationship. I was indifferent because i have my own reservations about opening my personal relationships to public scrutiny, but he put the nail in the coffin by saying, “it’d get me the attention and fame I’m asking for” as he sees my content creation as another means of garnering more attention for myself.

  1. I hate anything weaponized towards me as anyone would- it lacks incentive to promote our relationship even further.
  2. I’ve been happily quiet about my relationship for years because it again lessens the chances of the world tearing us down for any real/perceived faults.

He made the poly page anyway currently promoting his and our gf’s personal relationship, and them both changing their IG tags to @Mr______ and @Mrs______ and featuring me once… the bio still stating it’s a dedicated page to our poly love.

He tagged me as a collaborator on a post and I didn’t accept the invite just yet.

But again we’re all still happy living together in love but I don’t want the scrutiny or to be made to feel selfish about just promoting me and my brand.

AITA?
